Cerro El Chino is seen here from the east, just south of the town of Aguilares and is part of the Cerro Cinotepeque volcanic field, a large group of small Pleistocene-to-Holocene stratovolcanoes and cones constructed along NW-SE-trending faults on either side of the Río Lempa west of Guazapa volcano. The Holocene Cerro Cinotepeque cone lies about 6 km NW of Cerro El Chino.
